Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG DN Review

35mm is my go to Focal length.

Does this one have IBIS?

I used 35mm (equivalent) on my old apsc dslr, but since moving to a7iii I hardly use 35mm

LOL, Jordan spoke over Chris' complaints! Great review!

I can blow right past 35 with a 24-70

whats the best 16mm lens you said at the start that he uses?

Incredible review! Thank you guys!

Hi there! I am using the previous model sigma 1.4 hsm art and my lens does not have the eye detection on video mode. Supports the sigma 1.4 DG DN eye detection on video mode? Hope for your reply.

Cheers,
Alex

This lens has a bad barrel distortion.

Lmao. Great intro. I’m laughing because I have the same argument with all my friends that love 50mm. Haha. 50 just seems so bland haha gimme 35 or 85. They all think I’m crazy.

Waste of money to big to heavy ! mirrorless should be smaller but they are getting bigger and bigger. Much bigger than dslr lenses its complete bs. Time to get real and get sensible! Stop wasting your money and use your Zoom instead.

Anyone has this lens himself / herself yet? Interested to know if you can confirm or deny any of the said characteristics...

Sound of the Sony FS3 is very good, but is it me or is it slightly out of sync? I believe the FS3 looks better than the S1H Jordan has been using. What lens on the FS3?
Sigma 35mm looks great but wow the focus breathing was very special in a bad way.

Guys, im getting just a bit tired of Chris whinning about 35mm, i seriously want a video of him saying as many bad things of 35mm as possible, i want to know his arguements and opinions and... why? I get he can bring around 3 lenses with himself to do stuff but i need one lens to capture moments of my life, things happening with people around and it just nails it so well... and not have a bunch of gear that gets in the way of living those moments...

Yada yada...boring samples..yada yada

Sweet sneaky DnD/RPG reference, nerd.

Hey! I’m a redheaded stepchild!

You wore an Orvis jacket? $200 for a jacket that should sell for $39.99? Sheesh. Great review, by the way.

hope for a nikon z-mount

I thought accidently I play two videos at ones XD

Hikaru Nakamura doing photography now?

Mr.Chris Niccolls
Your photos are full with great skills
So very helpful and interesting.

Thank you so much.

YES JORDAN! Now he just GETS the 35mm focal length ... cmon Chris get with it tsk tsk ;)

So DPReview actually stands for digital photography review HUH
how boring i always thought it stands for double penetration review
as in you know one does the photo and the other does the video review
basically one does the clean and one does the dirty job :P what a missed opportunity xD


just in case you are offended

it was just a joke get over it

I will say that all comes down to price. Also I think sigma would benefit more from the hobbyist market with 1.8 lenses and low prices.

junge du kannst garnix xD

All great, but the Sony FX3 color rendition. Sorry to say but it looks harsh and flat to me.

i hate 35mm

Lol, I like how you voiced over when he tries to trash the 35mm focal length.

35mm is great but the sigma 40mm is better :P

Many years ago. Sony had their first Zeiss 35 f1.4. Everyone was saying its big its heavy for a 35. Many years later. Now Sigma release this 35. Its almost as big and heavy. But nobody say a thing.

Of cos. This lens is a better lens than the aged Sony zeiss 35. But just saying weight n size here.

Sorry Chris but eventhough the facts in the video are valid, one hears that you don't like 35mm ... THank you for trying anyway! ;-)

I agree with Chris and Jordan. I don’t like 35 for photography, but it’s my favourite focal length for video.

Very true. 🤣 I'm a 10-20mm though.

is it just me or chris sounds a bt different in a few part of the video? 🤔

Always love the Noct weight scale!

Every lens test should include star photos that illustrate the astigmatism and coma at the edges of the field of view, especially wide open.

Always having a good time watching your reviews, thanks guys.

Yes, another 35mm and Another Giant Lens from Sigma 🤷‍♂️

Haha，you looks much younger with less whisker.

35mm for life! Can't beat a 35 for point-and-shooting around the streets.

Just based on this video, it seems this lens has some distortions. And for L-Mount option, the Leica summicron is also available.

So did they put a gasket on it? I have almost all of the the ART primes and only sold my 135mm since I prefer the 85mm and never used much... one thing bugged me on these EF versions --- the 35mm 50mm and 20mm I own don't have weather seal gaskets but my 14mm and 85mm do and I think my 135mm did(?)... I never owned the 24mm (20 for me was a better fov)--my cams were super 35 Red Gemini for video and my old 5d4 stills... anyway if I missed that mention my fault -

i like the Panasonic s1H video so much better than the fx3
